## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING O/H OF 2 PROPELLER GOVERNORS THE IDLER GEAR, P/N 5337-050, WAS FOUND WITH THE BUSHING INSERT MISSING.  THESE 2 PROPELLER GOVERNORS WERE RECEIVED WITH BEARINGS INSTALLED IN THE PLACE OF THE BUSHING, HOWEVER WERE INADVERTENTLY DISCARDED AT DISMANTLE.  NO BEARINGS ARE IDENTIFIED IN THE IDLER GEAR AREA FOR THIS MODEL OF PROPELLER GOVERNOR.  THERE WERE NO REPORTED DISCREPENCIES IN THE FIELD FOR THESE PROPELLER GOVERNORS.
